General Science Memorial University of Newfoundland

Program Description

Science is about the origins of Earth and the understanding of the complex relationships between all its elements. It’s knowledge of plants and animals. It explains how a plane flies or a house is built – it’s the foundation of our lives. Grenfell’s general science degree program is unlike any other degree in Canada. It recognizes the unique scientific foundation that comes from a triple concentration. Because of the interdisciplinary nature of the program, students have a large number of course offerings to choose from. Students are led in classrooms by academics from diverse backgrounds and areas of expertise. Students study the night sky through one of Atlantic Canada’s largest astronomical telescope, housed in Grenfell’s recently opened observatory. New state-of-the-art chemistry, biology, earth science and physics labs are located in the Arts and Science Building.
